Misumi offers high-quality contact and positioning switches
Misumi Europa GmbH is offering its own range of high-quality contact and positioning switches for a wide variety of applications. There are six designs with a total of 101 types. In addition to the commonly used contact switches, there are also narrow and heatproof switches, switches with a stopper, tappet and precision-contact switches as normally-closed types (18 NC) and normally-open types (64 NO), all of which are usually available within six working days.
In applications with sophisticated position control or position monitoring tasks, the durable Misumi products ensure very precise switching points with a high switching hysteresis. Depending on the type of switch, the signal point repeatability is between 0.0005 and 0.001mm, the contact point life span between 500,000 and 3,000,000 cycles and the operating temperature between 0 and 80degC; for heatproof contact switches, an operating temperature of 200degC is possible.
Depending on the application requirements, users can choose from several non-corroding material pairings "" between straight and angled designs, and between a conical head, ball head, cylindrical head or pin head. The wide range of product variants features four fastening methods: screw in with flange, screw through with external thread, screw on and clamp.
The range covers IP protection classes IP 67, IP 65, IP 47, IP 44 and IP 40. Furthermore, 5 and 6mm smooth diameters are available, as well as M6 to M10 standard threads, M5 x 0.5 to M12 x 1.0 fine thread, and there are products both with and without an LED in the cable.
